I  finally upgraded my system to Win98SE, from Win95 tonight and am now
experiencing problems with my Voodoo5 card.  Although the Video driver
is installed (I can run GPL in Glide, etc), I cannot access the 3Dfx
tools which allow me to control Gamma, FSAA settings etc.  The little
icon that I had under Win95 on the system tray, is no longer present.
When I right-click on the desktop, I get no3Dfx or Voodoo tabs in my
Display settings.  And running 3Dfx Tools manager from the Start menu,
only displays a blank list.

The video quality for GPL is also much worse than it was under Win95
(lots of jaggies, even at 1024x768).  Can anyone offer any suggestions
on how I can get this card and its toold set up correctly again?

I'm using the original driver off the CD, because that's the only one
that I could get to properly work under Win95.  I've downloaded a newer
drivers but haven't installed them.  What Voodoo5 drivers do you guys
use for GPL?  (Version and date, if possible, please).

Thanks.
